I have requested $27.45 from Ciao this evening. I joined earlier this month round 11/10 and must say I have not put much work in so far as I am relatively busy plus I do find the site a little boring but this is not a bad amount to start with... Any other Ciao members made payout this month? Have you put in your request yet? How long have you been using the site; will this be your first payment too? Do you write reviews everyday? Do you find enough products or items to review/give your personal opinion about everyday, each month? Different products, categories, all? Since it is relatively different to myLot where discussions are started everyday, how do you keep up with writing reviews and activity on the site? How do you keep it enjoyable past writing your own reviews? what is your Ciao activity like?

This site is really good that I made $20 within 2 days! All you have to do is just submit reviews. I will try to submit as much as possible when I am free.

Did you check your spam folder as this is normally sent immediately I'd probably try to register with another email address and also check you are using the .com version of the site, link's on my profile page

I tried it with another e-mail address as well. I don't think ciao likes me :(

May be a case of your email filters, are you using gmail? May be one to email the site about if it's not in any other mailfolders

Hi Marina, I have been a member of Ciao for a month or so, however I have only written about 8 reviews so far. I have cashed out a little more than $10 from that. This will be my first payment. I hope to write more reviews, but have been very busy indeed with my new writing assignment. I will also be mylotting less this month. I need to fidn good stuff to review there too, sometimes it's difficult. I do feel a little guilty for not spending much time there. I have not rated my friends' reviews much either. I hope they forgive me. I will resume activity there once I have a little more time, that's for sure, because I think it is a great site to make money.

I have had less time too but hope to really get stuck in this month, I am such a music fan so finding reviewing music artists fun now and I'll hopefully tackle movies too.. I have added you as a friend, however do not feel obliged to read and rate my reviews LOL

That's one of the great thing about the site, easy to make payout quick
@marina321 (4556)

Yes, this is allowed but you need to include at the bottom of the review that you wrote it elsewhere first.. by including your name/id, date and site you wrote it on Btw, also check the new discussions on Ciao, they have recently changed their pay per review!

Hi marina321! I am also a member of CIAO. I joined last October 7 and I've requested payment of $49 and something cents last week. That $49 was a 1 week worth of work since I was also "on break" for a couple of days. I used to write reviews of 2-4 a day every day but since I got back last last week, I focus more on reading and rating others' reviews and I only start 1-2 reviews every other day. Most of my reviews are under the Movies category although I have a few under Telecommunications. So far, I've searched products that I could make a review of and I saw more than enough to last me several months with how I'm working on CIAO right now.

The $1 per review is a limited bonus offer, I believe it is a paying site but you can look out too for updates in a couple of weeks when people get paid again, there were several last month too. The site pays more than myLot per post so no harm in giving it a go too while you myLot hehe The link is on my profile page anyway and will keep my blog updated with any payments received as I do with other sites

Yeah, i'm a member at ciao, and that i joined on 23rd october.. ANd i have reached payout just yesterday.. lol =D And i have requested $10.33 from them, hopefully i will be paid by them.. hehe It's definitely fast money to earn from there, but it's kinda boring.. As one can only write reviews, and i dun use much technologies, thus i sort of loss out in that area.. hehe ^_^ BUt luckily there's a movies section, and part of all my reviews comes from movies.. lol

I joined Ciao few days ago. I just wrote my second review there, so I have earned only $1.08 till now. It is my first try at writing reviews actually. I plan to write at least one review a day since I am having quite some fun with it.

To be honest I am already writing for one review site and I don't know if I would be able to write for another one. But I'm hearing so much good stuff about Ciao that I am seriously considering it. And now, hearing all of you attesting that it pays and pays well, I really think I will be joining the site. Afterall, there has to be something to this if you lot are happy with it :P
@marina321 (4556)

Yes calajane, I see that you joined and have added you as a friend
